    With the shell and the truck loaded the stock leaf springs suck big time!
    With an AAL you get some lift but a better load capacity and eliminates the lean.
    It's a simple installation, just unbolt the stock springs and shock, add the new leaf to the stock leafs with new longer bolt and bolt everything up together. There's plenty of info on how-to in this site

    Re-fit the Thule racks from the Jetta setup to fit the Tacoma.
    53' Aeroblades, 480R feet.
    $440 original cost. 99 spent on a 1511 fit kit, and I now have racks for the Tacoma. Too dark to put them on tonight, so..... tomorrow.

    EDIT :
    Thule says the Aeroblades are not approved for use on the 2013 Toyota Tacoma Access cab. They list the regular, extended, and double. Apparently they are not aware of the access cab. Now emailing back and forth with CS. I included links from Toyota website calling it an access cab.
    We shall see.

    Of note, you can score a lit transponder ring from TLSautorecycling.com off vehicles that had the same part # as the white Tundra ring @Up2NoGood originally sourced. You will need to find an entire "ignition switch" assembly so to speak just cause that is how they sell it, rather than just the ring itself, but it will only cost ~$50 and you have the option of selling the rest of the ignition assembly + key to recoup costs. Buying just the ring from a dealer will cost you ~$110 or so, which makes the TLSauto route a large savings especially for a "small mod".

    Check out post #234 by @ramonortiz55 that has my quoted posts as well as the models/years he has listed for compatible white colored ignition rings. You can also see in my qouted post what to search for on TLS auto to find what you need. I found the Camry assemblies tend to run the cheapest at $50.

    4Runners have an amber colored LED if you prefer that over white, but the word markings won't line up correctly.

    Almost bought that at Home Depot the other day. Unfortunately, space for it is a little too tight. Let us know how it is!

    Started buying fluids for my next oil change and 100k coolant flush. Got lucky and found Mobil1 full synthetic oil for $2/qt at Autozone.
